Clinton seeks image repair with church visit amid impeachment chaos
President Clinton attended Sunday services at Foundry United Methodist Church as part of a broader push to present a human, repentant image ahead of an impeachment trial. He and Chelsea faced an angry critic while supporters offered reassurance, with Hillary volunteering later and plans for holiday readings and Arlington memorials. White House aides frame these acts as strategy to shift focus to health care and other priorities while bolstering public support.
